Your Philadelphia 76ers 2009 Playoff Thread

Barkley and Kenny think it's a lock that Howard gets suspended for game 6.  hmm

[MDS]

there is a 0% chance they win game 7 unless stern suspends him for 2 games. howard is an unstoppable beast and him pissed off will beat the ever loving shtein out of farging sam dalembert and that fossil theo ratliff.

sixers full court game disappeared last night...not enough rebounds not enough turnovers

they will win game 6....book it

[PhillyPhreak54]

I think they win 6 too.

Any word on if Lee is going to play and what happened to him? Concussion? I didn't catch the elbow by Howard, but I can't see the NBA suspending Howard. Not after David Stern spooged all over himself when talking about him on TV.

Damn that was a frustrating game to watch.

Remember when fighting used to be a part of professional basketball? Well, neither do I because I was too young at the time, but can you imagine someone popping you in the face with an elbow in real life and not doing something about it? Just looking around and saying, 'Hey, didn't anyone see that? Wah!'?

I mean, I haven't been in a fight in years and even when I was younger I preferred to avoid them since I don't find it all that enjoyable to beat or be beaten when I'm innocently enjoying a few dozen beers and making fun of everyone's stupid face. But if someone dropped an elbow on my jaw you can bet I'd be swinging and not standing there like a little bitch looking around for someone to notice.

In short, fighting should be re-introduced to the NBA, as god intended.

Lee has a fractured sinus and is out for game 6.  Nothing on Howard yet...

If there was a Sixer with balls enough to actually throw an elbow you guys would all be in here singing his praises.

You're worse than taterskins fans in this thread (with apologies to rjs who actually seems to get it).

[ice grillin you]

you like a team called the "magic"...think about that next time youre about to post in this thread

[Sgt PSN]

should there be fighting in the nba?  i don't think so.  i'm all for hard, physical play though.  i thought the rondo foul on brad miller was great.  no flagrant there.  

howard's elbow to dalembert?  definitely uncalled for.  however, you take an elbow like that, then consequences be damned, you throw one right back.  if not at that immediate moment, then you do it on the other end of the floor when howard goes up for a bucket or rebound, you drive your elbow right up under his freaking rib cage.  or just punch him in the nuts.  either way, you need to send a message that you ain't gonna take any of his shtein.  

i mean, farg, if baseball pitchers, who are the biggest hoydas in all of professional sports, will throw at a guy twice their size......who is also holding a farging bat, then there's no excuse at all for taking an elbow on the chin and not doing anything but look to the refs for a whistle.

Pretty sure I was fooling with the "Thug" comment too, but you might want to call a cheap hooker to untwist your panties, Magic fan.

Bzzt. I'm all for hard play. Bring back the Rick Mahorn style of play and I'm cool with that.

What we saw last night, from Crawford's crew, with the constant whistles for touch fouls 20ft away from the basket was ridiculous. Even worse, every time someone tried to touch Sir Dwight, they got whistled.

Van Gundy benefited from that junk. So DiLeo, a quiet fella, comes out and takes issue with it and that screaming idioot Van Gundy rips him. I wonder if good ol' Stan would have been quiet had the Magic been the ones getting screwed.

Fighting in the NBA went out the window once Magic got HIV'd.
